Thematic Bible: Sanctify

And by the third day let them be ready: for on the third day the Lord will come down on Mount Sinai, before the eyes of all the people.

He is not to be touched by a hand, but is to be stoned or have an arrow put through him; man or beast, he is to be put to death: at the long sounding of a horn they may come up to the mountain. Then Moses went down from the mountain to the people, and made the people holy; and their clothing was washed. And he said to the people, Be ready by the third day: do not come near a woman.
